The five species of the genus Microphysogobio in Korea are reviewed with the keys to species and their illustrations: M. longidorsalis, M. jeoni sp. nov., M. koreeneis, M. yaluensis, and M. rapidus. Microphysogobio tungtingensis uchidai was treated as a junior synonym of M. yaluensis based on having the distinct papillae of upper lip and the color pattern on body sides by the examination of the type specimens. Microphysogobio jeoni is described as a new species from the specimens collected in the Naktong River, Han River and Keum River, Korea. it is well distinguished from the related species by the slender body, undeveloped papillae of upper lip and unspotted fins. Microphysogobio yaluensis was showed the clinal variations in the number of lateral line scales and vertebrae among the populations in the western drainages of Korea. It is remarked biogeographically that the five species of Microphysogobio are all endemics to Korea with the restricted ranges.

Based on four specimens (50.9~69.0 mm SL) collected from a small stream of southern coast of Jeju Island, Eleotris acanthopoma was described as the second Eleotris species as well as the first record from Korea. They were characterized by having two dorsal fins, well-separated pelvic fins, separation of two rows of sensory papillae on opercle and extending the fourth row of sensory papillae beyond the 13th longitudinal sensory-papillae row on cheek. We proposed a new Korean name, "Geom-eun-gu-gul-mu-chi", for the species.

The egg capsule of Hongeo koreana is newly described based on two egg capsules extracted from the uterus of a female collected near the type locality, the southwestern coast of the Korean Peninsula. The egg capsule of H. koreana has the following characters: medium sized, measuring 124.5~133.7 mm in total length including horns, 102.8~109.4 mm in length excluding horns, and 41.0~42.2 mm in maximum width; asymmetrical, with the egg capsule more convex ventrally in lateral view; the surface relatively smooth, with longitudinal striations distinct, and covered with masses of sticky silky fibers; anterior and posterior aprons distinct; all four horns short, tube-like in shape, elliptical in cross section, anterior horns recurved inwardly; respiratory fissure present at tip of each of the four horns. The color of the fresh capsule is bright brown.

A comparative petal micromorphology of 15 taxa of tribe Sorbarieae was carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in order to evaluate their taxonomic and systematic implication. The characteristics of both adaxial and abaxial side of petal epidermal cells such as shape, arrangement, anticlinal wall and cuticular sculpture were described in detail. The Sorbarieae petal epidermal cells were identified as papillate or conical papillate (PCS) and rectangular-rugose tabular (TRS). Three types of petal micromorphology were found within the tribe based on the cell patterns of adaxial and abaxial side. Type I. PCS-TRS, Type II. PCS-PCS, Type III. TRS-TRS (adaxial-abaxial side). The petal epidermal cell types, anticlinal cell wall, and cuticular sculpture represent not only taxonomical importance for identification between or within the genera but also systematic implication. Moreover, this study provides a relation between petal epidermal cell pattern and insect pollinator (entomophily; melittophily) as an additional case.

The purpose of study was to obtain the data for development of oral health improvement programs for the high school students by investigation of oral health education experience. Excluding 19 inadequate answers, 279 questionnaire copies were analyzed. First, the analysis results is knowledge level of oral care, the students who smoking or drinking were found to be more than without experience groups (p=0.025). Second, in regard to the self perception of oral condition, the group with experience of proper tooth brushing techniques has statistically significant difference compared to the group without experience (p=0.000). And third, the question about oral health behavior was significantly higher than the group with no smoking experience. The importance of oral health care is closely related to oral health knowledge. It's necessary to provide oral health promotion program and smoking cessation programs in high school students.

The taxonomic status and scientific names of Artemisia gmelinii and its allied taxa have long been debated. To provide correct names and taxonomic status, A. gmelinii and its allied taxa were reviewed in this study based on morphological characters. After a comparison of original descriptions and type specimens, the names of A. freyniana f. discolor and A. freyniana f. vestita used in Korea were recognized as A. sacrorum var. sacrorum and A. sacrorum var. incana, respectively, based on the characters of the trichome on the leaf, the geographical distributions, the chromosome numbers, and the existence of a pinule connection on the exine of the pollen. A. iwayomogi, the scientific name misused as A. gmelinii, was combined and newly named A. sacrorum var. iwayomogi (Kitam.) M. S. Park & G. Y. Chung based on its morphological similarity to the A. sacrorum group. A description, illustration, and key for each of the taxa are provided here.

Organic-inorganic hybrid coating solutions were prepared starting from colloidal silica, lanthanum nitrate and ${\gamma}$-glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane by the sol-gel method. Also, spiropyran-doped hard coating solutions were prepared by mixing the spiropyran solution, obtained after dissolving spiropyran dye into tetrahydrofuran solvent, with the organic-inorgnic hybrid coating solutions. The spiropyran-doped hard coating solutions were applied as a thin layer to polycarbonate sheets, and their photochromic properties were investigated. The effect of amount of colloidal silica added into the coating solutions was investigated on the photochromic properties of coating films. Both decoloration rate and pencil hardness of the coating films were increased with increasing the amounts of colloidal silica.

This study aimed at recognition on infection control among dental staff. This investigation was implemented by survey and questionnaires on 50 dentists and 176 dental hygienists and 100 aide nurses who were working in Deagu. The results is 1. Dental staff was recognition that extremely dangerous infectious disease is hepatitis B in dental clinic. 2. Wearing gloves and rubber dam was high in degree of recognition on using of personal protective gears however, put on apron was low. 3. The degree of recognition about sterilization of dental instruments was more higher on dentist and dental hygienists than aide nurse. 4. Dental hygienists were higher than other groups on degree of recognition about managing of dental equipment's surface.

It is essential to employ a binder to prepare transparent films from conductive polymer such as poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS). In this paper, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), and PSS were selected as a binder, and their effects were investigated. The formation of the film was found to be primarily dependent on the surface tension of coating solution including PEDOT/PSS and a binder. When PSS was used as a binder, the film was not formed. In case of using PVP, it was easily peeled off from the substrate. However, when using the PVA or the mixtures of PVA and PSS or PVA and PVP as a binder, films with good transparency and uniform surface resistances were produced. Based on adhesion and long-term stability tests, we concluded that the mixture of PVA and PSS is the best binder for preparing antistatic films of PEDOT/PSS.

In order to carry out a systematic study of ascidians in Cheju Island, the authors identified and classified specimens collected from 11 sites around Cheju Island from December 1 1969 to January 1989. Using the information gathered from this study as well as previous s studies, the authors prepared a detailed list of the ascidians of Cheju Island. A As a result of this study, the ascidians of Cheju Island are 50 species in 10 families. Among them, 3 species (Dideηmum apersum, Didemnum translucidum, Botrylloides perspicuum) had not previously been known to exist in Korean waters. Description and drawings of these three species are presented in this report. It was also discovered that ten of the fifty species are found only in the Cheju Island area. The fifty species recorded in the Cheju Island area account for 68% of the seventy three species recorded from all Korea. Classifying them by t the temperature of the water where they are found, the authors found the following: one cold water species (2% of the total), seven cold-temperate water species (14%), thirty eight warm-temperate water species (76%) and four tropical water species (8%)
